Completed build - Intel Core i5-9600K mid-range gaming rig $1,200

Squirt noise is air bubbles working their way out, eventually those noises will stop or happen only when the system is first booted up.

Exactly what I thought.

@OP,
Nice clean work!!! I assume the hoses are long to work with any size system, I do suggest wire Tying them up in the top right hand corner of the case(when looking in from the side) and only let the hoses touch on the GPU(as there is little space between the memory and GPU). that should "pull" the extra hose away from resting on the GPU.

I tied them up and rotated the joints upwards a little bit. After then, the hoses stay about 5 mm above the gfx board surface.

Finally I have a good look of the iCUE software.
Indeed, both fans of the H100i PRO RGB connected according to the manual are there, the software provides RPM information of both fans. Around 950 under quiet mode.

I have another questions here: The 9600K's frequencies alternated between 3.7 and 4.6 while I was just using the desktop like browsing. I was not running any games at all.

Is that because I have set the XMP_1 profile in the BIOS of the Asus ROG Strix Z390-F?

Well, the temperature is okay, it s between 31 and 35C under such condition, room temperature is around 23C, I closed all the windows and have the warmer on light. But I don't understand why the 9600K fluctuates betwwen 3.7 and 4.6. My 3570K previously didn't jump to the Turbo mode unless I ran games. Any clues?

Newer CPUs are acting like that with more agressive boost behaviour. That 3570K is quiet old tech.
What is your windows power plan?
In BIOS there are some settings about the idle/light load behaviour of the CPU (P and C states) but I cant help you with that as I'm not familiar with Intel based systems (desktops) for the last 10+ years.

All board brands have a habit of disabling some or all power saving options for either CPU brand I've come across.

Wouldn't hurt to have a look at the CPU/Package C-States, and C1E are enabled.

If according to what you said, I will then take it as normal. If so, then I would like to say the H100i PRO performs brilliantly, since at the temperature is kept pretty well in the 30's.

I wish you were referring to the "Steeping" features in early gen of Intel CPU. Thanks for the pointer, I'll check it out.

What exactly does C-States stands for, and what is C1E, is it a control?

All apply to the same rule...

Quoting from another resource on the internet that explains it better than I would have.

C1E - Enhanced Halt State "Whenever the OS executes the halt instruction, the CPU enters what is known as the halt state. Architecturally, what's going on in a halt state is the clock signal is shut off to the CPU for some period of time. With no clock signal, none of the logic in the chip will do anything and thus power consumption is reduced.

Edit:
This link below to Wikichips might help give you a better understanding of C-States. Wikichips can be a valuable resource for the inter-workings of a CPU.

C-states - ACPI - WikiChip

C-states are the idle state ACPI policies that govern a microprocessor - i.e. states that shut down parts of the microprocessor when cores are not used. Modern microprocessors have several C-states representing an increasingly larger part of the processor that's being shut down. Additionally...

I m proud to present, added to my new system, the following spec applies:

CPU = Intel Core i5-9600K (3.7 GHz - 4.6 GHz overclock-able to 5.1 GHz)
MOBO = ASUS ROG Strix Z390-F (Premium motherboard with excellent Plug-and-Play BIOS support)
GPU = ASUS ROG Strix RX 570 4GB OC Edition (Stock core speed @1290MHz overclock-able to 1400MHz stable)
RAM = Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000MHz CL15 (Low profile DDR4)
COOLER = Corsair H100i PRO RGB (High performance 240mm AIO LCS)
PSU = Corsair RMx 850W (Premium class Corsair power supply unit with monitoring support via iCUE)
CASE = Cooler Master MasterBox MB511 Tempered glass version(Excellent airflow with 3 stock front RGB fans and 1 stock rear non-RGB fan and solid build and spacious interior)
*USB Device = SanDisk Extreme PRO USB 3.1 Solid State Flash Drive 128GB (Upper class extrenal USB Drive, world fastest USB drive at the time of this thread).

Ha Ha !! The world fastest external USB drive is now in my possession, coupled with Sabrent Rocket 1TB M.2 drive, storage subsystems of my PC will unleash its power like the Minuteman III.

What need to be added to my system would be an ultra quiet scissor Keyboard and an ultra quiet Mouse. Any thoughts?
